Ho Chi Minh City (VNA) June 12

In the face of the complicated situation of the COVID-19 epidemic, many technology enterprises have come up with solutions and applications to solve the "problem" while ensuring work and implementing effective disease prevention and control. With the advantage of being a large information technology business community with many core technologies in facial recognition, artificial intelligence (AI), healthcare, e-commerce..., One Member Limited Liability Company QTSC Development Officer (QTSC Company) and partners have built many applications for epidemic prevention and control.

* Automatic increase, exposure reduction

Currently, Ho Chi Minh City is drastically implementing the requirements of epidemic prevention and control, following Directive 15 of the Prime Minister for the whole city and Directive 16 in Go Vap and Thanh Loc wards (districts). twelfth). People entering and exiting buildings and offices are always measured body temperature, required to wear masks and make medical declarations... However, this is still mostly done manually, security forces must regularly have contact with many people.

Facing that fact, QTSC Company has cooperated with TMA Innovation Company (belonging to TMA Solutions in Quang Trung Software Park) to research and develop, put into application for the Automatic Body Temperature Gate to check body temperature and automatic mask reminder. Accordingly, when someone passes by, the system will automatically measure body temperature and prompt to wear a mask (if not wearing a mask); If someone exceeds 37.5 degrees Celsius, the machine will give a warning.

An automatic body temperature measurement gate is suitable for applications in buildings and areas that need to control people in and out, the purpose is to replace the current body temperature checker to reduce direct contact between people, and limit disease risk. The system is being applied in some buildings of Quang Trung Software City (QTSC) such as TMA Building, QTSC Building 1, QTSC Building 9; Saigon Transportation Mechanical Corporation (SAMCO); An Phu villa area (Thu Duc city)…

Nhieu Quoc Tran, Head of the Technology Solutions Department of QTSC Company, said that this system is convenient and easy to apply at agencies, schools, hospitals, airports, bus stations, buses, and other places. places where people gather. The system helps units reduce the number of employees in charge of temperature checks and reminds people to wear masks to limit the spread of disease in the community. Currently, QTSC is providing automatic temperature checkers and mask reminders to the market.

Along with the above system, TMA Solutions Company has also researched and developed a device to support automatic medical declaration and patient screening, helping to save personnel as well as avoid overload and congestion when declaring by paper; integrated remote information control system, easy to access data when needed, screen suspected infected subjects according to low to high-risk groups.

The device uses voice to guide users step by step and automatically checks body temperature, prompts them to wear a mask; then automatically fills in information for users by scanning citizen identification (or identity card), face recognition, or scanning a QR code if the user has previously declared online. Users only need to fill in their health information and receive an authenticated QR code after completing the medical declaration.

According to Tran Phuc Hong, CEO of TMA Innovation, over the past two years, QTSC has collaborated with TMA Innovation to provide many solutions to the market to limit exposure during the COVID-19 pandemic. outbreak based on the application of new technologies AI, IoT, Robots, unmanned aerial vehicles, 5G... This demonstrates the support and companionship of QTSC for businesses in general and startups in general. specifically to help businesses bring products to market.

Another technology solution that has also been tested to reduce pressure on the healthcare industry is the POD Health Information Collection System developed by Alta Software (at the QTSC Research and Implementation Center), which meets most of the requirements of medical staff in hospitals and medical facilities. The system allows the taking of vitals such as height, weight, temperature, blood pressure, and blood oxygen levels of the examiner. The system is being trialed at a number of hospitals in Ho Chi Minh City.

* Security for working remotely

Currently, many agencies and units are gradually shifting face-to-face meetings to online meetings to limit contact and facilitate group meetings in many locations at the same time; Along with that is implementing remote work to limit the spread of disease. The security of information when meeting online and sharing documents when working from home is always a matter of focus.

With that request, QTSC Company cooperated with Lac Viet Company to deploy SureMeet online meeting software. This is an interactive internet-based online meeting (or learning) solution, which helps to improve the efficiency of meetings (study), reduce travel costs, no need to focus, and take advantage of new resources. Previously, such as meeting rooms, projection boards, cameras, microphones, etc. The meeting bridgeheads can use Windows computers, tablets, and smartphones (Android, iOS) to connect to the meeting anytime and anywhere. have an internet connection and 3G, 4G, and 5G networks.

According to QTSC Company, the online meeting software has been approved by the People's Committee of Ho Chi Minh City, the People's Committee of District 1, District 3, Binh Thanh, District 7, Binh Chanh District, the City Youth Volunteer Force, and the Agriculture Corporation.

Confidentiality such as: Preventing viewers from copying, editing, and printing documents; limiting who can view documents, set document viewing time limits, revoke shared documents...

With the epidemic situation still evolving in a complicated and unpredictable way, it is necessary to change working forms in the current period. Technology enterprises have been and continue to offer many solutions and applications to "remove" difficulties, contributing to ensuring the good implementation of COVID-19 prevention and control.
